TMI OBSERVATION CENTER NOBLE GAS SAMPLER Krypton-85 exists in the atmosphere world-wide as a result of nuclear weapons testing, nuclear power generation and fuel reprocessing.
These samples were analyzed in a laboratory, specifically for Krypton-85.
S amples ollected in the vicinity of TMI in recent months show background levels of Krypton-85 to be in the range of 20-40 pC1/m3 (pico_
cu ries per cubic meter).
The sample collected March 20 - March 26,1980 contained 25 pCi/m,
3 The sample collected March 26 - April 2, 1980 contained 21 pCi/m,

GOLDSBORO NOBLE GAS S A.T LER In addition to the gamma rate recorder 'the EPA has installed a sampling devise, which collects a compressed air sample, at the Fira Hall. This sample is analyzed in a laboratory, specifically for Krypton-85.
Krypton-85 exists in the atmosphere world-wide as a result of nuclear weapons testing, nuclear powet generation and fuel reprocessing.
Samples collected in the vicinity of TMI in recent months show background levels of Kt,jpton-85 to be in the range of 20-40 pCi/m3 (picoeuries per cubic mete r).
3 The sample collected March 25 - March. 31, 1980 contained 24 pCi/m,
3 The sample collected March 31 - April 03, 1980 contained 19 pCi/m.
